In Every Dream Home a Heartache

Monday, May 9th, 2011

(Ferry)

In every dream home a heartache
And every step I take
Takes me further from heaven
Is there a heaven?
I`d like to think so
Standards of living
They´re rising daily
But home oh sweet home
It´s only a saying
From bell push to faucet
In smart town apartment
The cottage is pretty

Same Old Scene

Friday, April 29th, 2011

(Ferry)

Nothings last forever
Of that I´m sure
Now you´ve made an offer
I´ll take some more
Young loving may be

It´s all that heavy weather
We´re going through
When I turn the corner

Through frenzied ports o´ call

The bogus man is on his way
As fast as he can run
He´s tired but he´ll get to you
And shoot you with his gun

Focussed his mind
On something he cared about
But it came out a shout
Just like before

The bogus man is at your heels
Now clutching at your coat
You must be quick now hurry up

Do The Strand

Tuesday, July 13th, 2010

There’s a new sensation
A fabulous creation
A danceable solution
To teenage revolution
Do the Strand love
When you feel love
It’s the new way
That’s why we say
Do the Strand
Do it on the tables
Quaglino’s place or Mabel’s
Slow and gentle
Sentimental
All styles served...
